She went to the Rachael Ray show over the holidays and this was one of the give-aways to everyone in the audience. I haven't used it yet, but I've held it in my hands and it is solid, and very cool looking. I'm going to give it a spin and we'll see how it stacks up. I'm hoping the people at the Rachael Ray show tested it first such that they're not giving away total crap.<br /> <br /> fyi - if memory serves me, the ipod's coolest feature, the flywheel, only exists because they first licensed the flywheel tech from a UK company.<br /> <br /> My mom just got one in the mail.

fyi – if memory serves me, the ipod's coolest feature, the flywheel, only exists because they first licensed the flywheel tech from a UK company.

I'm not saying they aren't crap since I havent seen one in person, but thats a pretty blind/ignorant statement hifitrends. Who care's if another site is also selling them. I'm sure they'll badge them up however a company wants, as long as they pay the price.<br /> <br /> Why do you think they are crap? They seem to have decent specs from that long-horn site.

The name "Rover" is terrible though. I like that you do not need a PC either if you do not want to use it.<br /> <br /> 12 hours of playback sounds too far-fetched though.
